Grading of Student Submissions

In general, it is recommended that the teacher assesses a fair proportion of
the work submitted by the students. The assessments are shown to the
students and will provide important feedback on their work.

The assessments from the teacher are used in two ways in the workshop
module. Firstly, they are used in the calculations to determine
the "grading grades", the grades given the student assessments.
Secondly they are used in the calculation of the submission grades. These
assessments can be given extra weight (the "Weight of Teacher
Assessments" option), this weighting effects both the grading grade
and the submission grade calculations. If it felt that the student
assessments are too high (or too low), increasing this weighting factor
should be considered as that will help stabilise the grades to a degree.
